Through the Flowing Silver Blue Teleportation Device, Su Xi and Alif saw their next destination: a dazzling planet with a highly developed entertainment industry.
In the starry sky, many planets have been purchased by resource-rich civilizations and transformed into planets with unique industries.
The planet before us is Atafa-A, an entertainment star system that was purchased and modified by the Diamond Civilization.
The two had just completed a long-distance teleportation. Although the teleportation fee wasn't much for Su Xi, it was enough to leave her with absolutely no more Silver Whirl Coin.
Because she spent all her money on Creation Energy potions, her wallet is now extremely empty.
Although Alif was willing to pay for the teleportation, Su Xi didn't want to be a kept woman.
In addition, most of the money that Alif had saved up was going to be used to help the Sen Star Person hiding in various places, so she didn't want to add to Alif's burden.
After thinking about it, Su Xi decided that she still had to rely on herself.
Regardless, she is a creator with some fame, so earning some bounty for teleportation is still possible.
After finding a temporary place to stay with Alif, they immediately opened the Bounty Network to see if there were any ways to make quick money.
However, an advertisement that popped up immediately caught her attention.
"The Starry Sky Diva Preliminaries are about to begin. Do you want to become a hero of civilization? Do you want to contribute to the development of civilization? Do you have a special voice? Whether you do or not, we welcome you to participate in the Diva Competition, showcase your abilities, and let your civilization stand before everyone!"
A video documenting the appearances of Diva throughout history, coupled with this advertising tagline, is hard not to attract attention.
The advertisement's lighting effects were so dazzling that Su Xi thought she had opened a Macau casino website.
"Wow, this bonus is so tempting!"
The first place winner will receive 10 billion Silver Whirl Coin, the second place winner will receive 5 billion, and the third place winner will receive 1 billion!
Even without a ranking, there are still tens of thousands, or even tens of millions, of prize money, which is undoubtedly very attractive to Su Xi, whose wallet is currently empty.
Alif glanced at the advertisement and said, "The Diva Competition is hosted by the Diamond Civilization and is held every year. They certainly won't be stingy with the prize money for the Diva, but this contest is a battleground for many civilizations. It's too difficult to become number one."
Upon hearing this, Su Xi smiled slightly and said, "Even if I don't get into the top three, the rewards for the lower rankings are pretty good. Besides, this show is so popular, there must be a lot of viewers. If each viewer gives me a dollar as a tip, I can become rich instantly!"
Alif looked at Your Highness Su's appearance.
According to the Sen Star Person's aesthetic standards, her appearance is undoubtedly at its peak.
Furthermore, since the Sen Star Person have not appeared in public for a long time, His Your Highness Su should attract a lot of attention.
However, Alif is still not very optimistic.
Because His Your Highness Su's voice lacks magic.
Su Xi excitedly clicked to register.
What has been the most profitable thing since ancient times?
Of course, it's the easiest money to earn from family members!
When Su Xi was working, she used to watch those live streamers earn a lot of money just by singing and dancing, and she was extremely envious of them.
Now it's finally her turn to make money off her family.
The rules of the Starry Sky Diva Competition are quite unique, at least for Su Xi, they are quite shocking.
The organizers of this competition created a vibrant virtual world. In this world, each Diva is randomly assigned an identity and a corresponding script.
Then they need to use their singing ability to win over the NPCs in the virtual world. The more NPCs who like your singing, the more likely you are to unlock the next stage of the story.
This method of organization seems to offer a lot of room for maneuver, but it's not actually the case.
Because these NPCs are projections of the subconscious of the audience in the real world. The subconscious can be understood as the id, the source of the most fundamental desires of life, and the final evaluations given by the audience will ultimately conform to their real-world choices.
Therefore, it is very difficult to cheat.
Unless the organizers, the Diamond Civilization, personally intervene, there is little room for manipulation.
In fact, many years ago, the Diamond Civilization had used internal manipulation to rig the final results of the election, which was then exposed. In order to prevent the competition from becoming unfair, the Diamond Civilization directly announced the cancellation of the Diamond Diva's ranking and stated that the Diamond Civilization would not be allowed to participate in the Starry Sky Diva election in the future.
This is what revived the competition and has kept it popular ever since.
After learning a little about the background of the competition, Su Xi began to look at the rules.
There are many rules, but you only need to know two.
First, all the beings participating in the Diva Competition will enter this IP location three days later. Inside will be a complete virtual planet. Each Diva will receive a script, and the Diva will need to act out the content of the script.
Secondly, during the role-playing process, the Diva can create lyrics, which are then evaluated by NPCs. Those with higher scores can unlock the next stage of the script. (This is essentially the audition stage.)
As for the other rules, there's no need to care, because those rules are all aimed at those Diva have their own traffic and capital, while she, Su Xi, has nothing, so it makes no difference whether she looks at them or not.
After watching it, Su Xi couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "As expected of an advanced interstellar society, even their entertainment methods are so awesome."
They created a virtual world and placed all the Diva into it, allowing each to showcase their talents, and the audience was subconsciously participating in the competition up close...
If you were a spectator, you'd definitely feel great after the game ended and your subconscious returned to normal.
"Speaking of which, if someone had the ability to manipulate minds, wouldn't they be able to get first place?"
Su Xi suddenly realized that if a contestant mastered the ability to charm and then used it to manipulate the minds of NPCs to obtain higher evaluations, then what would be the point of the competition for everyone else?
Alif shook her head and said, "Although most of the Diva participating in this competition have various abilities, manipulating minds and influencing NPCs' judgments is not allowed. As for your concern that others might use it secretly, there's no need to worry. The Diamond Civilization will be monitoring this place, and those viewers who didn't participate in the subconscious experience will also be watching from outside the screen."
Su Xi suddenly realized that, in other words, besides the NPCs, the evaluations of the Diamond Civilization and the audience in front of the screen were also very important.
Damn, if someone bribes the Diamond Civilization and buys a large number of online trolls, wouldn't it be just as easy for a shady deal to be exposed?
Alif saw through Su Xi's thoughts and did not refute them; where there are people, there will be interests.
However, the Diamond Civilization won't make it too obvious. If Diva with explosive strength really appears, the Diamond Civilization will still let her take first place.
